Gu Hanhan was the most thoughtful person. Since she had decided not to leave, she concentrated on thinking about staying.
"Miss Mingzhu," she asked enthusiastically, "When shall we leave to return to New Chang'an?"
"We" made Mingzhu happy, thinking that Gu Hanhan's children could be taught, and there were many rumors about widows in Aicheng that were not true.
"In three days," Mingzhu replied, "we will definitely be able to get back to New Chang'an before the Shangsi Festival."
She said with great interest: "Miss Gu has not celebrated the Shangsi Festival in our Tang Dynasty. It is a festival specially for young women. It is very lively. You will definitely like it. When the time comes, I will also celebrate the Shangsi Festival when I was young. I’ll turn my skirt inside out and play with you.”
Gu Hanhan was actually very moved. Hearing this was very attractive. I just don’t know what the dress of a young girl looks like when Mingzhu, the attendant, has changed. She has never seen her dressed up. She always wears a black and red imperial palace uniform. Occasionally, she has been seen wearing a black and blue military uniform, but she is dressed up. The dress has never been seen before.
At this time, the attendants surrounded Li Shen and came in from the palace gate. After the sacrificial ceremony, he no longer wore black clothes, but changed into white clothes. Like stars holding the moon, he stood out among the black and red uniforms. Very. Li Shen walked in and saw his chief attendant and Gu Hanhan standing on the terrace together, seemingly chatting happily with each other at a very dangerous distance.
This made Mr. Li Shen immediately alert. A nervous look flashed across his white porcelain jade-like face for a moment. He didn't know whether he was more nervous about his attendants or more nervous about Gu. Hanhan is more. As an "addiction" that needs to be quit, Gu Hanhan himself is quite self-aware anyway.
"What are you talking about?" he asked, throwing away the attendants and walking straight over.
"We're talking about Miss Mingzhu wearing a skirt." Gu Hanha rushed to answer.
Mingzhu smiled and saluted Li Shen and said, "I'm about to tell you that Miss Gu is going to New Chang'an with you."
The news was probably too sudden, causing Mr. Li Shen to suffer from indigestion for a while, so that his expression management failed. In a flash, Gu Hanhan saw a mixture of surprise, depression and ecstasy on his mute face. .
"Oh, that's right." He said.
"Yes," Gu Hanhan was brave enough to hold Master Li Shen's arm, "Are you surprised, happy or not, unexpected or not?"
"Of course I'm happy," he said.
you are happy? I don't believe you, you mute is so bad! I think you were surprised first, then depressed, and finally it was the turn of a handful of people to be happy, right? ? I want to beautify you! Although I can't leave, you can't succeed either. Sister, I’m telling you, it’s not enough!
Even if it was out of vanity, Gu Hanha felt that she had to be angry, but seeing Master Li Shen's expression as if he had been raped, she became happy again, thinking that she had been comforted.
Should! She thought, if you, a wall-rider, just sit back and wait all day without asking questions about people, would this plan go bankrupt, right? ! I asked you to send your sister away, but you refused. Now I want to quit my sister, but I also want my sister to leave on her own initiative. I want to put myself in the position of an abandoned, crying victim, trying to trick her? I tell you, it’s not enough, my sister will never fall for this evil again! From now on? It’s hard to say who will quit and who will quit. If you don’t believe it, we will fight for 300 rounds soon. Whoever gives in first will be the dog! Humph, if I can’t deal with others, I can’t deal with you. In the past, I didn’t use my full strength——
"If you're happy, just buy me a boat." She grabbed Mr. Li Shen's arm and held him firmly in her arms. "We won't take the same Xiangyun boat when we go back, right?" . I feel that the boat’s feng shui is not good and something will happen as soon as I sit on it. It’s safe to have trouble even if I sit on it. I should change it!”
At this moment, Mr. Li Shen's mind was diverted. The enthusiasm in his heart immediately overcame the initial surprise and surprise, and he began to think about the beautiful flowers blooming along the way. He is very happy to fulfill Gu Hanhan's wish and provide her with a boat that she likes, with good weather, good water and sunshine. It's just that Lord Li Shen didn't know what kind of ship she liked, so he just had to ask -
"What ship do you want?"
"I see, that boat is very good," Gu Hanhan licked his lips and said, "The Fat Fish."
Fat fish number?
Master Li Shen subconsciously went to see Mingzhu. Does he own this boat?
Miss Mingzhu turned a blind eye, not squinting, and was unwilling to confirm in front of Mr. Li Shen that his official ship "Bei Mingyu" turned out to be such an unpleasant "fat fish" in Gu Hanhan's mouth.
As for Gu Hanhan's mentality, he was unwilling to directly point out that it was the Northern Fish, as if once he did, his secret thoughts when he was waiting outside the lighthouse star to enter the port would be exposed to others. Although it is said that when everyone is in middle school, when they see a beautiful and domineering big fish, they want to look at its waist, legs, butt, and back, and then imagine riding a fish - thinking about it. Well, how long will it be without shame? But after all, I still blushed after being stupid, which was very embarrassing. Can? Avoid it. Of course, it is best for us to avoid it.
So Gu Hanhan would rather describe it in a roundabout way. She said: "It was your last time, the last time, or maybe it was the last time. Anyway, it was me when I was in college. Think about it. It was - 4013, the boat you took to Lighthouse Star in the autumn of 4013. It was very big, with a round belly, and two big wings - "
Oh, the Northern Fish!
But Lord Li Shen, who had solved the mystery, still didn't know whether the ship was there or not. When they set off three days later, Gu Hanhan couldn't sit on it, so he still only had to look at his attendant, Miss Mingzhu.
Miss Mingzhu can no longer pretend not to know, after all, even the adults have guessed it.
"It turns out to be the Northern Fish," she suddenly realized. "Speaking of the size of that ship, it is indeed a bit huge, but being big also has its advantages. The space on the ship has always been spacious and the facilities are complete. Suitable for long-distance jumps, you and your adults will have a wonderful trip.”
She assured: "No problem, can you take the Bei Mingyu to New Chang'an?"
In fact, the Bei Mingyu was not there at all, and Mingzhu had no intention of asking Li Shen to return to New Chang'an on this official ship with too strong political connotations. After the ship was escorted by the Guards, it has been docked in the ship port of Jinlunxing Base Camp as a symbol of the Zong Palace and Li Shen himself. The original plan was that if Li Shen had not been found for more than three months, the base camp would of course have to move forward, and the Bei Mingyu would of course have to move further into the isolation zone. But now that Mr. Li Shen has successfully escaped, then Of course it's not necessary. In order to avoid overstimulating the Acropolis after the Summer Hunting Ceremony and causing uncontrollable accidents, the Pearl Plan is that Li Shen will take the relatively weaker but faster "Penglai" cruise ship to return to the Jinlun Star Base Camp first, and then Then transfer to the Bei Mingyu and cruise all the way back to New Chang'an slowly. By the way, it also settled the domestic politics of the empire. But now that Gu Hanhan said that he wanted to get the Bei Mingyu directly, of course he had to satisfy her with such a trivial matter. Even though the ship isn't there, it can just be brought over. It's not a big deal, and it's perfectly timely.
On the contrary, because Gu Hanhan was unexpectedly willing to cooperate, Mingzhu was already considering a more radical strategy. In previous actions, whether it was a brazen military action in the isolation zone or a political action in the Acropolis, although they showed a fierce attitude and did not hesitate to break up with the Acropolis and the temple, in fact the Pearl did not really The plan to completely break up with the Acropolis and the Temple. There are too many unstable factors in Weiyang Palace, Tai Pavilion, and even the Zong Palace itself. The empire has always lacked focus on the Acropolis, which makes Mingzhu dare not act rashly. Therefore, all these actions outside the empire are nothing more than a false shot, but they are actually aimed at the empire. Mingzhu actually planned to use Li Shen's crisis to completely wipe out the conservative forces in the country, so as to integrate the attitudes of the Zong Palace, Weiyang Palace, and Taige Houses to deal with the situation after the Pegasus War.
But now, since Gu Hanhan is smart and cooperative, and she took the initiative to ask for the Bei Mingyu, Mingzhu feels that she might as well try to solve domestic problems and foreign problems at the same time. Anyway, you can always try, and there will be no loss if you try. If you try and make a mistake, we will just go back to China and start all over again.
She is seriously considering the possibility of a political alliance with Gu Hanhan, a real alliance. She is a very good card to play against Acropolis. Just imagine if Gu Hanhan is pushed to a high position in Acropolis, so that she can truly become a pivotal political force in the temple. Then through this exit, the empire will gain an important point of influence on the Acropolis, and there is plenty of room for improvement. Moreover, with the help of Gu Hanhan’s involvement in the Dawn Trade and the New Trade Line, as well as her status as a widow, the empire can silently penetrate its influence into the new territory of Pegasus through her line, thereby creating a shift in the empire’s entire national affairs. Provide more chips.
Of course, the premise is that Gu Hanhan has enough power. As a healer, she and Li Shen can establish a closer relationship that can provide more guarantees for the alliance.
From the perspective of an angel investor, the Pearl Attendant weighed whether Gu Hanhan was worthy of such a large investment for her master and empire. Little did he know that his master had already gambled his entire wealth on it as if he was a deadbeat. Just like a disciple, I am so happy that I have just spent the whole day! So Gu Hanhan got his wish and saw the Bei Mingyu on the day of departure.
She boarded the ship while holding the hand of Lord Li Shen under the salute of at least 200,000 warships. The moment she boarded the ship, Gu Hanhan's vanity was greatly satisfied, and it seemed that her entire life Half complete.
——Holding the most beautiful man in the world, those beautiful feelings of girlhood.
Only Mr. Li Shen was so ignorant that he insisted on throwing cold water on Gu Hanhan at this time. He said: "Actually, you should like the Penglai more. That ship is completely designed according to the artistic conception of 'there are fairy mountains on the sea. On the contrary, the Bei Mingyu is quite satisfactory and doesn't have much new ideas."
Of course, this was immediately met with a blank stare from Gu Hanhan, and she asked him on the spot: "What does 'fairy mountain on the sea' mean?"
Mr. Li Shen was immediately speechless after being questioned. He didn't know that Gu Hanhan was so terrible when he was illiterate, so he had to keep silent and let her do whatever she wanted.
The Bei Mingyu emits the light of departure, carrying tens of thousands of accompanying and escorting ships. After a period of acceleration and cruising, it embarks on its return journey to the empire. After the Bei Mingyu entered the space jump, the remaining fleet of more than 200,000 people also began to retreat in batches.
Another week later, the fleet briefly stopped at Jinlun Star on the border of Lanhe River to accept the gift of the new territory, and then set off again to protect the sect leader Li Shen who had returned from summer hunting. The entire army returned to the mainland. Within the territory of the Tang Empire.
